I stayed here for 4 nights in a three-bed dorm. The room is small, but the beds are good. The staff is really friendly (what's in a name?) and very helpfull with a lot of things. Just ask and they will help you with everything. There is only one bathroom in each unit and the toilet is in it. It... More

The hostel itself is fine. Situated near other hostels it is on the main pick up route for most of the Fraser island busses. Although our room, bathroom and common area were very clean we found that the walls were pretty thin and even though there are notices telling people to keep off the balconies after 9:30 it didn't seem...

I stayed here for one and thought that the hostel was excellent value for money. The rooms were clean and the communal areas were the best I have seen so far on my travels. Te only bad points are that it is very noisy here and the internet is not great, I was given a code to the use on... More

This hostel was great for my girlfriend and I. We had a nice private room and the staff was very very friendly and helpful. They even held our backpacks during our Fraser Island trip. The setup here is great. the whole place is setup into four apartments. so, four kitchens, four washrooms. It was a great change of pace. Also... More

Everything works for once! we have been to so many scabby hostels that have faulty lighting, toilets, showers and holes in walls with wires hanging out. You wont find anything like that here. The place even... More

We had to sleep one night at Hervey Bay to go early in the morning to Fraser Island and we booked the beds when driving from Brisbane. The keys were left in an external safe for us and we had no problems. We got there at 11:45pm and left at 6am, so we can't say much, but the place was... More

We spent two nights in this hostel. We arrived by night so the reception was closed but it was not a problem as they had let us the key in a box. They stored our luggage during our trip on Fraser Island for free, which was nice. The room was clean and comfortable. It is a very good backpacker and... More

Very cozy and quiet place, we definitely recommend to anyone coming to Hervey Bay. More

The Friendly Hostel is exactly that. Don't come here if you want parties and lots of activities - there are plenty of other places offering that. But these people will pick you up from the bus terminal, give you a bed in a self-contained flat so you only share cooking/bathroom facilities with a few other guests, provide free internet and...
